Data

One of the goals of the Swiss Marketplace Lending Association is to increase the transparency of the market for private and professional investors. Understanding the risks and returns of investments in marketplace lending is essential for the evolution of the Swiss market. In a first step, the SMLA therefore established common definitions for risk and return figures (see Code of Conduct). The data will be reported on a nationally aggregated level in 2019.

The volumes and number of loans for the first three quarters in 2018 can be found below. You can download the data as an xls file here.
